What is chicken seasoning

Chicken seasoning is a mix of herbs and spices that go well with chicken. When combined together they add a savory note to the chicken without overpowering or drastically flavouring the chicken. they just add deliciousness.

You can often buy chicken seasoning in the grocery store, the packets of spice are often a few bucks, and will contain rice flour, various preservatives, sugar and salt.

Making your own means you can control the salt and the sugar and there are no fillers or preservatives that you can't pronounce!

How to make chicken seasoning

Making your own chicken seasoning is simple! I bet you already have the ingredients in your pantry!

To make this seasoning blend you will need:

• Ground sage
• Dried thyme
• Dried marjoram/oregano
• Dried mint
• Paprika
• Black pepper
• Ground cloves (optional)

These get mixed together in a glass jar and are then ready on hand to season up your next chicken dinner?

Is there salt in chicken seasoning?

There is usually a lot of salt in the store bought seasoning packets. But in my homemade simple chicken seasoning, you'll find there is no salt or sugar. This gives you total control. It means you can salt your chicken to suit the dish you have in mind.

For example, if you want to rub this into chicken breasts you can leave it to marinade all day without worrying that the salt will draw moisture from the chicken.

• Rub into chicken thighs and then grill them. (Sprinkle the finished thighs with sea salt and a squeeze of lemon)
